I-INTRODUCTION
 Shallow foundation is in term of footing, spread
footing or map footing. The deep is generally
D/B<=1 but maybe some what more.
 Two important factors that are to be considered
are:
• The foundation must be stable against

shear failure of the supporting soil.

• The foundation must not settle beyond a

tolerable limit to avoid damage to the

structure.

CAPACITY THEORY
Mechanism of Failure:
We have three zone to consider while the
foundation is loaded.
 1 . Zone I is elastic equilibrium zone

 2 . Zone II is radial shear state

 3 . Zone III is Rankine passive state

 Ultimate Bearing Capacity of Soil
 
is the maximum bearing capacity of
soil at which the soil fails by shear.
 Effective Overburden Pressure
